Hi Emily - you should be able to find tamarind at Asian grocery store near you. I know tamarind comes in two forms in the US. I'm much prefer the fresh pulps, instead of the one comes in paste form. I've never used the one in paste form, but I know some readers who have tried the recipe with tamarind paste enjoyed it.

You can also get the tamarind pulps online: http://www.asiansupermarket365.com/Assam-Jawa-Tamarind-p/ctpaqj.htm

Hi Blackcat - Both tamarind and lemon are wonderful sour agents, but each will bring you quite a different result. In my opinion, tamarind has a much more complex flavour. It is absolutely worth exploring. Enjoy!

Hmmm-- I hadn't thought of tamarind as a possible lemon substitute-- my son hates lemon. Worth exploring!

Thanks Tamara. You might be able to find tamarind in Croatia. May be in a paste form? Let us know if you get a chance to experiment tamarind in your gorgeous baking. May be some sweet tart pastry or yummy jam?:)
